Dark Rinon (黒いリノン Kuroi Rinon?) is a character in the Dance Dance Revolution series.
Introduction[]
She is an unplayable boss character who appears only in the arcade version of DanceDanceRevolution X2. She is the enemy and target of Rinon. To fight against her, simply get all 6 medals in Replicant D-action and play Valkyrie dimension as the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE song. She later appears along with Rinon in DanceDanceRevolution (2014 arcade game) in the sequel of Replicant D-action known as Replicant D-Ignition. Dark Rinon is revealed to be Rinon after she transforms as her by merging the six orbs within her body before fighting the player in ENCORE EXTRA STAGE.
